Ruby Sterling Silver Posts 5mm

A ruby is a pink to blood-red colored gemstone, a variety of the mineral corundum (aluminium oxide). The red color is caused mainly by the presence of the element chromium. Its name comes from ruber, Latin for red. Other varieties of gem-quality corundum are called sapphires. The ruby is considered one of the four precious stones, together with the sapphire, the emerald, and the diamond.

These studs feature 5mm faceted ruby (.65ct) in a six prong, hand cut, sterling silver gem setting on sterling posts.
